pazienza:You too get sense.This has been my advocacy. The SW has played this game all this yrs.They portray igbos as bad while aligning with north for economic and political gain. The only option as it stands now is igbos not to get deceived again that anything happening in 2027 is for southern gain.It will be for SW gain simply. The SE should align with north in 2027 and have proper agreement if possible written for what it is in it for SE and beyond. Obi most not even contest. Let play the politics as they have been playing it.The north can have the president while we have major economic gain for SE.What is SE gaining with SW as president beside SW dominance in all government sector and additional monopoly to lagos so that we will keep increasing thr agr.The 2027 election to SE should not be te rubbish about southern president. It should be about our economic and political interest and development. The last southern president was gej which we championed was never seen as sacrifice. I repeat the SE should align with north in 2027. and forget that scam they claim southern president or unity.The north remains our best partner in everything beside religion difference and intolerance. That we can live with as a people who travel over all the world |

pazienza:You still don't get it do you APC presently controls 2 out of 5 states in SE. Obi's LP controls only 1. If you're not fanatical enough to deliver all your states to your own kinsman why do you accuse others of not being fanatical enough for you? The SS states gave Obi a win despite the fact that his party did not control any state there. Why do you now accuse them of not being fanatical enough? |

helinues:I called you out over what you always do. That's not seeking your validation in anyway. |

Mbanda:Called me out as who? Don't you have meaningful life outside NL apart from trolling others? It's just annoying for you to be justifying why you made trolling a profession on this forum |
| Re: Southsouth People, Don’t Let Yourself Be Used by DMerciful(m): 8:19pm On May 03, 2025 |
If Obi cannot contest in 2027, he cannot contest again because it will go to the North. He should contest as the presidential candidate of the coalition fergie001: |

The reason Nigeria has not totally fallen bellow disrepair is because of the tendency of Igbos to insist on justice and fairness. When free, fair and credible elections come to Nigeria, Igbos will have the upper hand pazienza: |

Mbanda:Una don retreat after setting Igboland on fire and discovered that your method of agitation is wasteful of both human and material resouces with absolutely nothing to show for it,can't even get your leader out of jail after 4 years of sit at home enforcement in SE. Tufiakwa unu.

mrvitalis:Why? Atiku, Peter Obi, Sowore and others are contributing to the entrenchment of democracy in Nigeria , irrespective of whether they become president or not. |

Igirigimercenar:I can say he almost copied what I wrote here in 2022, except for the first few paragraphs. People obviously knowing me personally attacked me, my family here on NL...with proof of phone no, etc..... I am not doing that again. Let me repeat what I said..... I backed Soludo's letter 100%. I repeated in June that year, Obi had no chance to win..... Sit with Tinubu and Atiku the way Wike and Co did and ask them what they are doing for us. Pick the best side and back 101%.... People said I am mad. Everyone is fighting what will better their region and States. It's not an ego thing, it's a how-can-my-region get ahead? People called me mad. Oya nah, the Igbos are now even below minority tribes, no matter how much we want to brag we have been left behind politically. But for our industrious nature and tenacity, we will have been extinguished as a people, now is the time for us to look at ourselves and region and ask what we want and how we intend to go about it but emotions no go gree us. You know in your mind in 2027, Obi will not win but find a way to negotiate something better for your region. You must not join the APC.. Otti and Soludo are not in APC, but APC will look away from those States because they are negotiating with the Centre. Under the PDP, Abia had only one Federal Higher Institution, the only Southern State that did, today under APC, we have a Federal Poly and a Federal College of Education brought there by APC bigwigs. Whilst in the PDP, how did we negotiate? See, make we sit down for table and decide for ourselves, Simple and short, you need not be subservient but assertive. |

Nah, what you guys mean by building bridges is for Igbos to be subservient. The politics being played by SW and North has not improved Nigeria or their regions, i don't see why Igbos should play that kind of politicd loffyloffy: |

Agbegbaorogboye:LP controlled no state in SE, yet Obi got 90% plus votes in SE, why couldn't APC and co rig in SE? It's simple, you need foundational support to rig. If the same condition existed in SS states, then Obi would get 90% plus votes there like GEJ got in SE. As for your write up about APC controlling states in SE, what does that have to do with our discussion here, if anything they buttress my point. Thank you. |

DMerciful:Nnaa, Nigeria will never evolve to have credible elections, not even the west want that for Nigeria, just as the rest of Nigerians don't want it as well. It will do us good to work with what is available than on fantasies ( credible elections). |

Streetinvestor2:I think we should keep our cards close to our chests. Not be quick to throw support to the North, because if you do so, SW will panick and the North will use us to get favourable negotiations from Tinubu second tenure and leave us in the lurch while they wait their turn in 2031. All the talks from the North about Alliance with SE for all I care is their way of trying to exert pressure on Tinubu to give them positions. As long as Tinubu don't see us truly throwing support for the North, he will call off their bluffs and maintain his Yorubacentric government. But if we rush and throw our support to the North, we only make ourselves pawns in the Northern chest game with the SW, Tinubu will respond by handing the North favourable posts in his second tenure and they will shield their swords, they will use us to settle their difference and wait for 2031. The right way is to not throw support to North, keep our cards to our chests, just stay ambivalent , No support for any of them, let them battle it with Tinubu, let's see who is coming out on top first, just keep playing a long game, once a winner emerges close to the finish line, you rush and congratulate him and close ranks with him to crush the loser. Try and consolidate our home base, sack thieves like Peter Mbah, Uzodimma, and incompetent fellows like Nwifuru from governor positions in our region. The energy we expend on Presidential elections, let's bring it to play in our governorship elections, get Igbo nationalist, pragmatic, altruistic and competent hands to power in our states. Zik played similar politics in 1979 and 1983. We must do same again. No support for any non Igbo group or person, just keep our block votes for ourselves, then wait for the winner at the finish line and quickly close ranks with him, no antagonism, no drive whatsoever to cry over the winner being a bad choice for Nigerian progress,just play a long game plan, let Nigeria continue going down, the rest don't care, so why should we care? Something like this. |

loffyloffy:Stop talking trash.Igbo has never been talking down on hausa.We voted yaraduwa. We whr only against Buhari which had not to offer.The SW has been the ones creating enemity btw north and SE to gain political and economical. The hausas have always been Igbo best business partners and much better host.All past Igbo leaders have always lived sometimes in the North. |
| Re: Southsouth People, Don’t Let Yourself Be Used by Streetinvestor2: 9:44pm On May 03, 2025 |
pazienza:The problem is that these people you mentioned are never voted by majority of our people The other corrupt side always help them get to the governor position to use them to just get the 25% they need in future. I can say that with all baldness for my state imo. Then for the game you said.It is always possible to hold the north for an agreement. The SW is always snake with double face.It is always impossible to hold them to any agreement. The past history of nigeria has always shown it. |

Streetinvestor2:We can stop them if we bring the energy we bring to FG elections to governor elections. I know many "useless" Igbos of Imo origin who campaigned and voted for Uzodimma re election in Imo, one of them is even a lecturer, a Ph.D holder, we were close friends in the University, same with the thief Peter Mbah. These people had organic votes from our people upon which they built their rigging machinery. It's self denial to claim that they were imposed on us by outsiders.. Our people played a role. I know Nkanu friends who out of parochial sentiments voted for Mbah even when they knew he is a thief that helped Chimaroke launder the state money. We can and should do better going forward. |

fergie001:. My sentiment exactly We are now three in number here with this sentiment,me , pazienza and you We should keep reechoing it , maybe the rest of the igbos here could see reason with us and fall in line. We should keep advocating for an interest base politics at the center that is devoid of emotions but interest. Ndiigbo have suffered enough my brother |

Mbanda:The difference between Fulani herdsmen bandits and ipob is while Fulani herdsmen jihadist try to conquer new territories for their people, ipob is busy sacking and making Igbo towns and villages ghost towns. Watch this video and see what they did in Orsu and you want me to like ipob Chukwu aju. https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1BvKZx5Ato/ |

Streetinvestor2:We need to start having that double face too. The North or any one else must and should never be guaranteed of our votes. Our votes must remain uncertain until last minute. No fanatic support for anyone. |

Streetinvestor2:This analysis doesn't meet the standard needed to protect igbo interest Igbos should never vote for any region that has never voted for Igbos. Otherwise you are rewarding a region for acting wickedly towards Igbos. You are basically proposing for there not to be any consequences for those marginalising Igbos. Igbos should form strategic alliances based on hard-nosed interest list. Strike up an alliance with parts of the SS and NC that are willing to support an Igbo candidate and scrap for votes in the other regions. Just be ready to protect your votes BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY. |
